Rearrangement of 12q14-15 in pulmonary chondroid hamartoma

Genes Chromosomes Cancer. 1993 Oct;8(2):131-3. doi: 10.1002/gcc.2870080211.

Abstract

Cytogenetic analysis of a pulmonary chondroid hamartoma showed an inv(12)(p13q14-15) as the sole abnormality. This finding together with previously reported data is an indication that the 12q14-15 region may be nonrandomly involved in the pathogenesis of this tumor type.
